Anyone else enjoy and or follow the show?

Returns on Monday, March 17th with Brandt Snedeker.

I personally enjoy most of the interviews quite a bit. Some of his antics are a bit strange and annoying but the overall substance of most of his interviews are outstanding. Most interview shows are self important and about self promotion where as this show often seems like a way to flesh out his guests and not put forth some already conceived agenda.

The Tom Watson episode was outstanding and actually was cool to see some insight into David Feherty's past. I also enjoyed Bill Russell, Bubba's, Jack Nicklaus', Larry David and Paul Azingers among many others.

What are your thoughts or opinions on the show?

I love the Feherty show. I could watch a full season in a sitting if I didn't have something else to do. I'm not sure how well the show would work on DVD though (not too many episodes I've tried to re-watch either), so I probably wouldn't go that far.

I like Feherty.   he has such a quick wit - not many have that.     Sometimes he can try too hard, but usually he cracks me up

Used to love him but I think I've been over-exposed. I think he's a great person although these days I have to take him in doses.

Totally dig his show. He does a great job of making the show about his guest and not him. The opposite of most media-types. The Larry David episode is my favorite so far.

Feherty is the man.  Did any of you catch when he did some color commentary for the Notre Dame - Navy game in Dublin two years ago?  Hilarious.  I don't think he had the first freakin' clue what was going on down on the field, but he was clearly enjoying himself.

My favorite Feherty-ism:

He annoys me at times, but I enjoy his interviews mostly because I am interested in his interviewees.   I DVR and FF past the monologs to the interview.

David Feherty is funny, but I have very little interest in those types of interview shows.  If I turn it on, sometimes I get caught up in it because the guest is interesting, but usually while I'm flipping through stations, if I see Feherty is on, I skip past it.

I don't particularly care for extended doses of Feherty.

I enjoy the Feherty show very much, I like his quick wit and love the interviews, I have found that many times after watching his show, I gain respect or an understanding of some of the players, that I really didn't like before the show,

His "Live, behind the scenes" episode was hilarious............

I enjoy his shows, but, just like I get that Kevin James is fat, I get that feherty is an ex-drunk.

I like the show a lot. I think he's improved as an interviewer over the course of the show. If its on, I'll usually watch it.

I like the interviews, but really hate the contrived schtick (jumping into bushes, pretending he's a fish, etc.).  It's not funny, it's lame.

I agree with this. He does a pretty good job with interviews but he tends to "force" the funny a little too much which is too bad because he is very funny guy when he just let's it come naturally.

    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
